(Eagle News) — In this video taken by Eagle News correspondent Norie Baytic, several members of the House of Representatives are seen holding a session post-State of the Nation Address on Monday, July 23, apparently aimed at again installing Rep. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo as the Speaker.
This was done after several who included allies of Rep. Pantaleon Alvarez’s camp questioned her oath-taking for the post prior to President Rodrigo Duterte’s State of the Nation Address.
Deputy Speaker Rolando Andaya was named the presiding officer, and Deputy Speaker Fred Castro the interim majority leader.
